Bug description:
  [Impact]
  This patch is required to prevent nova from accidentally marking pci_device allocations as deleted when it incorrectly reads the passthrough whitelist 

  [Test Case]
  * deploy openstack (any version that supports sriov)
  * single compute configured for sriov with at least once device in pci_passthrough_whitelist
  * create a vm and attach sriov port
  * remove device from pci_passthrough_whitelist and restart nova-compute
  * check that pci_devices allocations have not been marked as deleted

  [Regression Potential]
  None anticipated
  ----------------------------------------------------------------------------
  Upon trying to create VM instance (Say A) with one QAT VF, it fails with the following error i.e., “Requested operation is not valid: PCI device 0000:88:04.7 is in use by driver QEMU, domain instance-00000081”. Please note that, PCI device 0000:88:04.7 is already being assigned to another VM (Say B) .  We have installed openstack-mitaka release on CentO7 system. It has two Intel QAT devices. There are 32 VF devices available per QAT Device/DH895xCC device Out of 64 VFs, only 8 VFs are allocated (to VM instances) and rest should be available.
  But the nova scheduler tries to assign an already-in-use SRIOV VF to a new instance and instance fails. It appears that the nova database is not tracking which VF's have already been taken. But if I shut down VM B instance, then other instance VM A boots up and vice-versa. Note that, both the VM instances cannot run simultaneously because of the aforesaid issue.

  We should always be able to create as many instances with the
  requested PCI devices as there are available VFs.

  Please feel free to let me know if additional information is needed.
  Can anyone please suggest why it tries to assign same PCI device which
  has been assigned already? Is there any way to resolve this issue?
  Thank you in advance for your support and help.

  On the controller, , it appears there are duplicate PCI device entries
